An Ebola Haiku

Ebola Haiku

They were in command
And should haven taken a stand
Not put heads in sand.

Seems simple to me
For better someone to be
Strings attached cut free.

Where is place to park?
Wondered around in the dark
Learned place on a lark.

Can be contagious 
Which to me is outrageous
Said all the sages.

Should we only wait
Not be late and educate
Then start a new trait.
